What do?
>>
can you reduce your hours first? ask if you can work one or two shifts a week

The job is unionized and the scheduler refuses to give me less shifts because it's against union rules. I'm higher seniority, and people with higher seniority are supposed to get more shifts because it's what we all want apparently.

In order:
1. Improve time management. For example, study on your break periods.
2. Seek help with your school work. Tutoring, essay extensions, etc.
3. Get a different, more convenient job with better hours.

What university do you plan on attending? I transferred with a 3.7 from state school to a good university and I know someone that transferred with a much lower GPA (like 3.0)

I'm in Canada but I'll state them anyways:
Guelph, Windsor, McMaster or maybe even U of T.
